Re: Subfile

I don't know of anyway to lock the arrow keys, but what I would do is to 
force the readc of all the records in the subfile and revalidate them if 
that's what you are getting at.  If it's in error, then you could deal 
with it prior to performing your F12 save function.  As for setting the 
cursor to column 3 I wonder what would happen if you were to set the value 
of the &POS field in the subfile record with the same record #?  I'm 
thinking that might work?

Re: Subfile






Hi,

Thanks v. much for your beneficial advise, while I was already using 
SFLCSRRRN and RTNCSRLOC, I was just missing, how to use Chain Statement
with subfile, and I got it. Its like that.

> A            SFLCSR1  CHAIN SUBFILE

Further, can I lock the user from using the Arrow Keys in Subfile, just in 

case the user uses the arrow keys and change the values and without 
pressing 
enter, press F12 to save, how can I do so ? I mean, the user cannot move 
to 
any other column without pressing enter.

Secondly, how can I position the cursor in subfile through code, say after 

validating the item no. the item name is displayed in 2nd column, and the 
cursor should be position on 3rd column to enter quantity.


Best Regards,

Luqman
